Broken Tilt screen??

I have attached a photo of my AT&T Tilt. I recently dropped it and I want to know if I just need to replace the screen or if there is another issue. The phone works perfectly but the screen has weird colors and distortion. Also, this is the screen I was looking at purchasing to replace the damaged screen: http://cgi.ebay.com/New-LCD-Touch-S...c0.m14&_trkparms=65:16|66:2|39:1|293:2|294:50 .

I'm not 100% sure, but I think it might have to do with the ribbon cable that goes to the screen.

I just had a similar problem. Dropped my work laptop right on my screen, corner first mind you haha...
I bought this http://cgi.ebay.com/US-LCD-Screen-D...trkparms=65:12|66:1|39:1|72:1234|293:2|294:25
and got it fixed no problem. Took about 2 hours of tearing it apart and reassembling to do.
The screen includes the cable so if that is the issue then you are still fine. The screen comes with the dissembler tool, and the security screwdrivers you will need.
See the Kaiser Wiki for full disassemble instructions that worked quite well for me.

bobtheamazing - can you let me know how is the quality of the new screen?
uzim289 if you bought yours - can you let me know how the quality of the screen is ?
and any personal advice if i decide to take mine apart. Thank you.
I took mine to Vegas, kept it in my pocket, it was sure hot and my screen cracked... need to replace but wasn't sure if i should spend $80 on a certain website of just go the route of ebay.

Before you buy another screen I would recommend taking the phone apart first and just checking to see if the connector is loose. How far of a drop was it and what kind of surface did it hit?

This site
http://www.fonlogix.us/att-tilt-lcd-screen.html
I got my replacement screen from here and it was the best decision. trust me. I replaced my screen about 4 months ago, and my Tilt is just fine.

I bought a replacement for my Kaiser at Marktplaats.nl but that's for the netherlands. Replaced the lcd according the video from Fonlogix. I uploaded the video allso a while ago to youtube which made it verry easy to replace and now it works like a charm again. You might whant to check THIS SITE for a replacement.
Good luck.
:Edit:
I just noticed Fonlogix is cheaper

I replaced my sons Tilt LCD been like 8 months now works perfect no issues!
Not that hard to replace the screen just have to keep a sharp eye out for the teeny tiny screws!

Anybody know where to get the 'teeny tiny' screws? As I was removing the job wheel assembly, the small silver-colored screw was stripped out. Funny, it was the correct screwdriver size and everything, and other screws came out fine.

scratch on screen, best way to repair?

So, I had a Kaiser, and like an idiot had no screen protector on it. After about 1.5 years, I had put it in my pocket w/ my keys, and I guess this was the aftermath.
I am just wondering whats the easiest/cheapest way to get this repaired?
Is there no default protector in front of the LCD screen? I guess what I am really trying to confirm, is that those scratches are on the LCD screen itself, and the only way to fix this is with a replacement screen?

bumping for help

Do some googleing for "ipod screen scratch repair" and you might find some things to try -- but the best thing might be to replace the screen.
There are light abrasives available, where you essentially polish the screen to lessen the appearance of the scratch, but that scratch looks pretty deep to me
I've even seen some posts where folks recommended polishing with toothpaste

thanks for the heads up. Ya, i think I will replace it then. I found one on ebay for 10 bucks shipped from hong kong. It might take a little while to get here, but thats OK cause I now use a touch pro, but was looking to sell this to someone, and didnt want to sell it w/ a jacked up screen.

touch pro -- sigh
I'm hoping to move to a touch pro 2 whenever they come out with WM 6.5 pre-installed
But yeah -- first thing I do when I get a new phone is put a screen protector on

ya I am waiting for the touch pro 2 to drop too. I actually saw this other HTC device w/ a 1ghz processor and 4.3 inch screen, I would really rather wait for that, lol, but I dont think its been officially announced, so probably will have to settle for the touch pro 2. As soon as it drops, I will put the touch pro up for sale.
I did learn from my mistakes, teh touch pro has a screen protector and a invisible shield on the front keys, and has a hard plastic cover on the back to protect the back of it. I also have never dropped it, where my 8925 had been dropped quite a few times.

Brasso might work. It is an all metals polish which can be purchased at hardware stores and supermarkets. It worked really well on my iPod video's screen even though it is plastic.

Check your black model for air bubbles under the front panel

Just returned my SGS5 due to an air bubble or something under the front panel.
I've seen a lot of black SGS5 with this issue on one of the corners or around the home button. It is visible with sunlight or under a lamp. You need to pass your fingers around the front panel and then they will appear.
Check these pictures I took to see what I mean:

On the white model it can't be seen. Only on black ones.
Check to see if you have it.

Mines fine....had it since release

That happened to my friend but only after he dropped it, luckily on the carpet. Very cheap work from Samsung on a flag ship.
And it's really annoying... any way to fix it?

I had that develop - had the phone since launch day and the bubble developed 2 weeks ago. I took it into Samsung repair Centre and they replaced the screen within the day.

Disappointing to see such quality issues on their flagship.
Checked mine, looking fine so far, have it since launch.

It's mostly noticeable on the black model and in daylight at certain angles.
I've also seen it around the home button.
I've checked several black ones with this issue on stores.

None of them have the tempered glass screen protectors do they? I would hate to see everyone freaking out because their screen protector isn't lined up exactly how it should and creating the same problem.
I can speak from experience. Not that I thought my screen was messed up, but from how there is 0% tolerance with some of the tempered glass screen protectors and they need to be lined up perfectly or else around the corners they will have air bubbles exactly as everyone here shows.

Yes. Mine too, but the glass protection has been changed from 2 monhs ago. There is no scratch on it and I don't use cover

It's a really weird issue.
A guy above said he's was fine and the bubble appeared 2 weeks ago.
Is this something that can appear at a later time?
I think this is due to the waterproof protection.

Having trouble with change of display module

Hi everyone! I broken the screen of my P9 Plus, and there isn't official support for that phone in my country, so I had to buy a new screen+touch module and install it by myself. The installation was ok, but now the screen precision is terrible. Also I lost the 3d touch function and the possibility of screen capture with double knock.
So that repairship was very sad
Is possible that the screen module was SO fake? or did i omit any procedure? I don't know, may be like as a hard reset, or a recalibration... I didn't found nothing about that on the internet. Anyone with same experience?
Thank you!

what did u pay for screen and touch?

USD 275
Im from Argentina

Nobody?
I want to tell you that I returned the failed screen module. I will N E V E R buy here in Argentina again.
I bought a new screen module on eBay, from China, and now the screen precision is ok. The screen works mostly well, BUT... Im still without knuckle gestures and Force Touch functions...
So, I still with this issue... partly.
Besides, I get a little flashing or blinking (or flickering, sorry for my bad english, how should I call this? the screen turns off for 1 second and then returns to normal) every so often... I mean, every 2 or 3 minutes approximately. Maybe more.
Is there anything I can do? Any similar experience?
Help please, I read a lot on the internet and I did not find comments regarding experiences in screen changes on P9 Plus.
Any comment please
Thanks in advance!

let professionells do the work. I have replaced my screen two times with no problem. (Price: $200)

The problem is that there are no professionals working with this model here. That is why I have changed screen by miself. I hadnt another choice...

aha, understand.

Here again, I would like to ask a question...
I was watching carefully the screen that I have ordered, and I noted that it has a little window in lower left side... But there is nothing inside...
Like this: (look at lower left side of the screen, a little "orange window")

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
BUT... in my original screen that little window contains a connector or a flex, covered with a black sticker... like this
And this is the little flex or connector that i can see below:
Please... I need to know if I'm right when I say this could be related with Force Touch and knock-knock special functions...
Do you have any information on this? (or where could I get it?)
Thanks in advance!

Rectangle on my screen after removing the screen protector?

Hello everyone! This morning, I removed the screen protector that came with my replacement display which I have been using for months now because it had too many scratches. After removing it, nothing was out of the blue until I noticed a large patch of uneven pixels in the shape of a rectangle. Can someone explain to me why this happens and the best way to solve it?
I've read some others had luck by just leaving it alone and letting it disappear on its own (usually within a week or so). My screen does not show any signs of screen burn-in and only shows image retention when watching 16:9 content for long periods of time (~usually 40 minutes at most)

This is an image of my phone with the said rectangle.
App: OLED Tools
The rectangle is mostly noticeable when viewing dark images or gray backgrounds. It is also noticeable when looking at dark greens.

Mine did the same thing after removing my glass screen protector (Dome). Took a good 3 weeks to a month to fade enough that I can just ever ever so slightly notice it. I was really bummed out because the phone is flawless, and I wanted to change to a new protector.
But yeah, it faded away. I just looked again and I can't see it anymore.

I don't understand how the screen protector has anything to do with that or why it wasn't visible before. Disconcerting...

It's really very odd. First phone that has ever done something like that.

All I can say is always use OEM parts with these devices. That includes the adhesive strips.
I've repaired Canon pro cams before and having the exact parts makes the difference.
I hope it works out for you.

It was replaced by an authorized Samsung Service Center I know the parts are legit.
It's been a few weeks now, and it's not as noticeable anymore!
